The images on the above product listing seem to indicate otherwise. No, I have not tried the display for my self, though I'm probably going to order a Newhaven graphic model here momentarily, so I'll let you know.
Keep in mind that video is of a touch screen (touch panels, and multiple layers in general, cause optical issues) phone (limited battery power) from 2 years ago (plenty of time for development on a relatively new technology) using a full color screen - a lower resolution monochrome display means you have bigger, brighter pixels and less wasted space between them compared to a high res full color screen.

Right, but we aren't talking about e-readers here, we're talking about automotive instrumentation. How many instrument clusters have you seen that have a dark-on-light pattern at night?
